Medical malpractice occurs when a healthcare provider, hospital, or medical staff fails to deliver appropriate care, resulting in harm to the patient. Common examples include surgical errors, misdiagnoses, medication mistakes, and negligence in nursing homes.
In Pennsylvania, proving medical malpractice requires demonstrating that the healthcare provider deviated from accepted standards of care and that this deviation directly caused the patient’s injuries.
